FORT WORTH, Ten, Aug. ,, 1887.

FORT WORTH, Ten, Aug. ,, 1887.
Trade was very good to-day, the whole
sale merchants having nearly as much as
they could do.
Butter is in great demand and Is scarce
even at the fancy prices offered. As high
us % cents was offered to-day for ordi-
nary country butter.
Eggs and chickens are in demand, with
big prices offered.
TRADE REVIEW.
The interest excited in tobacco by the
heavy advance in prices particularly at
the west, has increased prices on medium
leaf hurley at New York but cents per
pound within the month, or about 40 per
cents per pound This hiss been slim
ulated largely by reports of 8
short crop and eided by
operators east and west. The relatively
higher prices west have caused the re-
shipment of 80 hogsheads from New
| York 20 Louisville TO take advantage OF
that market. The trace here talk Of 9
Ieshipment from Bremen.
! Speculation in wheat has been more
active. and prices have been frmer and
/
and Monday. Crop report and the export
movement favor firm prices, but the spec
ulative interest has not been able to re-
vive much since the collapse of the Chi
cago corner. Receipts of new winter
wheat have not reached expectations yet
Tie English crop promises to be larger
than last year, but the Indian cror
smaller. Wheat IS Sc per bu:hel higher
at San FRANCISCO.
The movement OF cotton goods at the
east on fall trade orders from first ant
second hands Is active and prices are sus
tanned. There is Nc Improvement in WOO
or in wooden goods yet Sugar is dull
and depressed, except in San Francisco
where it has been advancedto &c Coffee
is quiet. Hogs are lower, cattle de
pressed and hog products barely steady

A sILvER NINE PROBLEM

The New York Chronicle of Saturday
has long and extremely interesting
article upon the production of gold
and silver in the world, which, in the
present condition OF our currency, is
worth attention from business men.
1t points out that the price OF gold and
silver is not governed by the cost Of
production, but by the value set upon
them by the various nations. II the
degree in which other metal Is used as
money Is loosened, in that degree the
metal comes nearer and nearer to the
ordinary commercial influence Of de-
mand and supply. II silver ceased TO
be used as money lis price would be
entirely regulated by the ordinary
influences, like the price OF copper,
cotton or corn. As its use as currency
is diminished, we see It's price ap.
proach near - an ordinary market
value, and the more it's use as coin is
abandoned the lower it's price will be.
In this connection the Chronicle
brings forward fact we have not
hitherto seen put in this connection,
aud 1t Is one that win interest every
one who is pursuing with observant
eye the mutations OF silver. Mines
that produce gold only are decreasing
those that produce other metals In
combination with gold are increasing.
